Is George Blanda the only individual who played professional football in four different decades (40s, 50s. 60s, 70s)?

Thank you.

Adam Vinatieri came up one year shy of four decades from 1996-2019 ...

If Tom Brady had started one year earlier, 1999 instead of 2000, he would be in his fourth decade (90s, 00s, 10s, 20s).

Warren Moon counting Canada ...

Wikipedia lists John Carney as playing in 4 decades [1987-2010]. Since there wasn't a year zero many argue that we count decades wrong [as in the 80s should be 1981 to 1990] so then Brady would have 4 decades counting it that way but Carney would not. I just go along with what is normally considered a decade [as in 1980 to 1989].

Dick Vermeil was a head coach in four decades.

The way Tucker is kicking in Baltimore, he might make it to four decades ...

Halas coached in six decades, right ?

Sorry, thought Halas played-coached in 1919 ...
